Festival Info – Trillium Spring Gathering, ADF

Accommodations

There are no cabins or lodging at Thor’s Hollow Campground. There are plenty of spots for campers with electrical and water hook-up, as well as RV dump station.
There is space for tent camping
There are flushing toilets near the main ritual area, as well as outhouse bathrooms scattered throughout the campground as needed
There are private showers in the outdoor bath-house
There are fire rings and firewood for purchase at the campground if you want to cook at your camp. There is also a kitchen available but it will be utilized by the meal plan facilitators most of the weekend so it is not guaranteed or even suggested that it be made available for camp goers
There is an outdoor eating pavilion for meal plan dinners. This is also used generally for our concerts and can be wrapped and heaters added if it is chilly
There is a children’s play area with sandbox, swings, and toys. It is located close to all main events and workshops to allow our parents to stay close to their children and still find value in workshops
Handicap friendly, no large hills or stairs. There is one ramp to reach the community kitchen but we are wheelchair friendly
There is a Liberty Gas Station 2-3 miles down the road with an ATM, pizza oven, alcohol, and essentials if you need them.
If you are unable to stay at the campground, but still wish to attend the festival, you can purchase lodging at any of the surrounding hotels. Look for lodging in Winchester Virginia or Berkley Springs, West Virginia. Both are along the 522 route that leads to Trillium and are 10-20 minutes away, depending on where you choose.
We will have a hospitality tent available with snacks, hot water for tea, and 24/7 coffee for attendees as a courtesy. If you see the coffee pot empty, you are always welcome to help keep it full and keep the coffee flowing 🙂
